Also known as Pixie frog, due to its scientific name – Pyxicephalus adspersus. They are widespread throughout Angola, Botswana, Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, South Africa, Swaziland, Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe. They are found in a wide array of habitats including savannah and shrubland in both high rainfall / humidity and relatively arid. They are found around lakes, marshes, arable land and drainage ditches. A large frog, males being larger at around 25cm (nearly 1.5kg), females much smaller.
They are an easy frog to keep, but the greatest attention to hygiene is critical. They have huge appetites and produce huge amounts of faecal matter for this reason – it’s easy to see why hygiene is so important. Some keepers keep the frogs in shallow water for this reason, easy to change the water and 
keep clean. If substrates are used, arguably better for the frog for natural behaviour, the choice must facilitate burrowing, but easy to keep clean or replace frequently. A temperature of around 25-26C is ideal, and some keepers provide a UVB source of lighting.
